Overview
Premature atrial contraction need to be differentiated from other supraventricular premature beat that can originate from the atrioventricular node (AV node) or bundle of His.
Differentiating Premature Atrial Contraction from other Diseases
- Junctional premature beats that arise within the AV node
- Junctional premature beats that arise from the bundle of His
- Premature ventricular contractions (PVCs) that originate in one of the lower pumping chambers (the ventricles)
